Superintendent arrested for DUI in school’s SUV

Superintendent arrested for DUI in school’s SUV
By AMIE CATO-REMER EDITOR

Muldrow Public Schools Superintendent Leon Ashlock was reportedly arrested last Tuesday and booked into the Tulsa County jail on charges of driving under the influence and transporting an open container following an accident on the Creek Turnpike.

Oklahoma Highway Patrol (OHP) reported at about 10:42 a.m., they received a call after Ashlock, 47, struck a concrete barrier and got a flat tire, but continued driving. State police said an off-duty firefighter witnessed Ashlock’s driving and contacted authorities, while continuing to follow him. The damaged tire finally caused Ashlock to pull over on Yale Ave.

According to reports, two 375 ml bottles of cinnamon schnapps were found in the interior of the vehicle. One of the bottles was completely empty, while the other still yielded a few ounces.

Authorities reported that the superintendent was unsteady on his feet, had red and watery eyes, and seemed confused, stating he couldn’t tell officers why he was in Tulsa, where he’d been, or where he was headed.

Ashlock was also reported as being lethargic, failing all sobriety tests that were presented to him; and then refusing to take a breathalyzer.

OHP then contacted school officials because Ashlock was driving a SUV belonging to the school district.

Last Tuesday evening, Muldrow Public Schools posted the following to their Facebook page: “This afternoon the Muldrow Public Schools was notified by the Oklahoma Highway Patrol that one of the district’s vehicles was involved in a traffic accident on the Creek Turnpike. As a result, the vehicle sustained damage, and the operator of the vehicle was taken into custody by the OHP. The board of education is collecting information concerning these events and the involvement of district personnel. The district will have no further comment at this time as it seeks to learn the facts but will provide a full report to the Muldrow community at the appropriate time.”

Ashlock was released on a $1,100 bond following his arrest.
